Happy birthday, blog. It’s been long since I last visited you; I almost forgot about you. Sure, there was the occasional visit to reminisce about the old days, but no new posts. However, tomorrow is your very first birthday! That’s an incredible occasion, and you deserve a new post.
There have many things I wanted to blog about – double standards, internal conflicts, lots of injustices in the world… but I guess that sometimes it’s better to just keep the pain inside. To blog, you need to be really opinionated and have this consistent urge to share your opinion with the world. When this urge dies, why blog? Many friends asked why I stopped blogging, and I guess the reason is that I didn’t want to let the whole world know my views about everything. It’s true that I was overwhelmed with work and lacked free time, but that was only the easy way for saying I’m tired of opinions. The media is biased and people are (frankly) very stupid. They hear one thing from someone and they take it as a fatal fact – never consider questioning or even rechecking, so why contribute to the flow of ideas that brainwash people? I’m not here to impose my personal views on anyone and I’m certainly not looking for criticism or argument. Not to mention that this “revolutionary spirit” I had in me is sort of gone, so Cold Revolt isn’t very appropriate now. instead of looking for the flaws in society and bitching (excuse the French) about them, we might as well utilize our awareness, time and energy to actually making things better.
So, I’ve decided not to bother. There might be this occasional post (if the “urge” decided to resurrect over a persistent issue), but generally, there probably will be no more posts. I sure hope against this though.
I hope to see you before your second birthday.
Evolution.
NOOOOOO…
what about,, revolution?? and.. if u wanna make stuff better, maybe you should write about that!
You are very convincing so maybe if you talk about utilizing “our awareness, time and energy to actually making things better” and the actual process of it, u’ll not only be convincing, but also MOTIVATING and INSPIRING!! :’)
I did not want to be the one saying it, but glad you to see it yourself. It’s Evolution rather than Revolution.
Always a pleasure reading your words ! God bless.
And moreover, I know exactly what you’re talking about. One of the reasons I started different blog(s) is the fact that I came to realize that I do not want everyone to know of my opinions !
And oh by the way, Its Ahmed Khiari here! Started using wordpress as well! :p
I like the attitude, but not so much how you decided not to continue blogging.
